Open Access Courses

Welcome to Stress Control

What is it? A course

How much does it cost? ITS FREE

Do I need a GP's referral? NO

Where? In venues across the city

How will it help me feel better? You will learn techniques to deal with stress.

Stress Control is a course which runs over six consecutive weeks and will teach you better ways of handling common problems such as anxiety, depression, low self-confidence, poor sleep and panic attacks in 6, 90 minute sessions (including a break).

Stress Control is a class – not a group therapy – so you won’t have to talk about your problems in front of others. You just sit back and learn some of the ways to control stress. As stress is so common, there may be 50 + people at each session so you will be able to bring someone with you if you want. They can give you a bit of support and it also gets that person on the same wavelength.
